2013 Skoda Octavia 2.0L Diesel · FW13 AHD

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 17 November 2025 at 102,498 miles resulted in no defects, maintaining a stable trend of mechanical integrity over the last five years. This record suggests that the previous owners have been proactive in maintaining the vehicle to avoid the advisory notes or failures common in cars of this age and mileage. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,884 miles per year. Between November 2021 at 87,038 miles and November 2025 at 102,498 miles, the car covered 15,460 miles, indicating steady, low-impact usage rather than rapid accumulation. The lack of significant spikes in mileage between the 2023 and 2024 tests supports the idea that the drivetrain and suspension components have not been subjected to excessive stress from long-distance motorway commuting. While the MOT record shows no recurring mechanical faults, a physical inspection should still focus on components susceptible to age-related degradation rather than mileage. A buyer should check the rubber bushings in the suspension arms for cracking, as these can perish over a decade regardless of low mileage. Given the vehicle's age, inspecting the rear brake discs for surface corrosion and checking the integrity of the exhaust system is necessary to ensure the clean MOT history reflects the current state of the chassis.
